Microservices and containers are powerful technologies. That said, they bring a number of challenges in distributed systems including routing & service discovery, failure handling and circuit breaking, observability & performance management, and testing complexity

Developers can solve these challenges with JavaScript in each microservice. But this takes them away from the true focus the service

The concept of Service Mesh (eg - istio, conduit, linkerd) aides microservices development by adding an infrastructure layer that handles service-to-service communication via distributed proxies. Each microservice will now have its own sidecar that handles communication and can be managed centrally

In this session, we will show how application architects and developers can use Service Mesh to easily add complex network routing, logging, TLS security, testing, & much more to their applications
